Letter from Fr. Paul
Dear Friends in Christ,
Along with all other parishes in the diocese, St. Pius X is participating in the Love One Another Campaign.
I am fully supportive of this campaign in which 60 percent of what we raise will go toward meeting our parish needs, while the remaining funds will support diocesan efforts focusing on Catholic Charities for the poor and those in need, Saint Francis de Sales Seminary, priests’ retirement, and vital ministries throughout the 10 counties of southeastern Wisconsin.
Your pledge, no matter its size, will make a significant impact on our parish, the Church, and the community. I appreciate the faithfulness of those who regularly support our parish and its outreach to those in need. I ask all parishioners to support this campaign, as best you can, both financially and in prayer.
Let us Love Another!
Sincerely in the Divine Savior,
Fr. Paul James Portland, SDS
Pastor

Our Needs
Our share of the funds raised will be used for evangelization efforts to further our mission and message, as well as facility upgrades within our worship space and buildings.
|
Evangelization - $82,000
Our parish has been blessed with a community driven by the Salvatorian charism to bring “the goodness and kindness of our Savior” to all. To continue this vision for a community rich in inclusivity and diversity, funds will be used to promote our presence and message to those who pass by through a new outdoor sign. Additionally, these funds will be used to assist our formation personnel with stipend fees and new programming materials. 
|
Capital Improvements - $245,576
These funds will be used to address facility upkeep in the worship space. Needs include, but are not limited to, painting, ceiling repairs, flooring, and carpeting. Additionally, we will place our focus on repairing and replacing our roofs and furnaces as needed. Addressing these needs will allow us to provide our parishioners and visitors a safe and comfortable worship space and experience, save our parish on maintenance and upkeep costs, and allow us to continue to be a vibrant beacon of God’s Word as we grow our mission and ministry. |
The Love One Another Campaign covers extraordinary parish and archdiocesan needs not met through the Catholic Stewardship Appeal. All contributions will be received by the Love One Another Trust for the use and purposes set forth in the Love One Another Campaign and for no other purposes.
For questions or more information, contact Dean Weyer, Director of Operations and Finance at (414) 453-3875 x16 or dweyer@stpiusparish.org.
